On a phone or laptop screen, HD feeds already look sharp; 4K only pays off on a 4K display. Fast basketball rewards a wired connection more than a 4K badge. Plans are prepaid and never auto-renew, and you have 7 days to ask for your money back.

On a phone, turn on auto-rotate, raise brightness if you're outside, and stay on Wi-Fi for a full game: HD uses roughly 3 GB an hour. Casting to a TV is an option when friends come over.
NBA viewing tips

- Fast breaks expose a weak connection first. If the picture smears in transition, drop from 4K to HD.
- West Coast tip-offs can run past midnight Eastern; catch-up lets you finish the game the next morning.
- Set the player buffer to a medium value, about 2 to 3 seconds, so short dips do not freeze a possession.
- Keep the league channel and the national networks next to each other in favorites.
When the picture misbehaves

- Move to Ethernet or 5 GHz Wi-Fi before the next one.
- Restart the player at a break in play; it clears most freezes in under a minute.
